To make the notifications timely you’d need to request the feed very often, which is super inefficient - 99% of requests would produce no new notification.
I know this, and that is why i do not (my usual pull rate is once in 6-12 hours).
Making a RSS feed is not difficult especially as we already produce them for other content.
thank you. to me rss is one of the best things possible. instead of me manually checking each website, i just get the content i ask for, in cliennt i prefer, from where i can open it however i feel (for example, with threadiverse communities, i diectly subscribe to community’s rss from their base instance, which also kinda distributes the load).
while writing, i was confused about this. was it a russian puppet state that was established, or like directly reporting to moscow. so i thought russia influenced was a safer bet.
